Have you ever wondered what is in the Bermuda Triangle, what is the most dangerous area on the planet, I am going to tell you the places you should never go near.

The Bermuda Triangle, the enigma of the ocean. In that area, compasses and navigation instruments often fail and storms emerge without warning; In addition, there are extremely intense marine currents. There are deposits of frozen methane gas on the seabed, and sometimes this gas is release d in the form of bubbles; When it occurs, the water reduces its density and the ships lose buoyancy, which results in sinking. More than 70 ships and aircraft have been lost in that area in the last century. If you fall there, you may have a chance of surviving, but the cold and exhaustion will overcome you.

The Snake Islands are located in the Quemada Grande region, Brazil. Imagine walking through a tropical forest and encountering snakes at every step ready to bite. The most common species is Bothrops insularis and can be lethal in less than an hour. The poison would act by degrading your flesh from the inside; You would bleed from your eyes and nose until you died. The Brazilian government has already restricted access to that island.

Mount Everest: imagine climbing to the summit, but at eight thousand meters each advance is an ordeal. At a certain stage you will enter the death zone, where there is a lack of oxygen and the cold consumes you; Here there are more than 200 frozen bodies that serve as a guide for climbers.
